There are many such fuels and they are, biodiesel, liquefied petroleum gas, compressed natural gas, liquefied natural gas, pure plant oils, electricity, methanol, ethanol and hydrogen. Of all these liquefied natural gas has been used by most of for ages and yet we do not know about it by its chemical name, propane. This has been used for a long period of time and the cooking gas that you use in your kitchen is propane. There are some cars too that are running on this fuel. However, this fuel is not so cheap and it too has its limitations, since it also comes from natural resources and one day or the other, its supply will get depleted. In such circumstances, biodiesel seems to be the best alternative. It is relatively cheap and it has been successfully tested on many cars. There are many types of alternative fuels, but one should look at the future before deciding which one to adapt to.
